Ports

Quito

In Quito, old meets new, mountain high becomes valley deep, and spring prevails year-round. Nestled in the valley of the Incas, surrounded by the grandeur of the Andes and the luxuriance of the rainforest, Quito is a compelling blend of history, architecture, cuisine, art, people and legend. In 1979, UNESCO declared Quito's historic centre a World Heritage Site, the first city in the world to receive the accolade.

Manta

A commercial centre – the second largest port after Guayaquil – and a thriving holiday centre, Manta and its people are drawn to the shore and its curving Malecón, the promenade that lines the bay. All of life is here – restaurants, bars and their music spill out, with revellers splitting their time between these and favourite beaches like El Murciélago. Don’t miss the chance to learn about the many talents of the locals and their ancestors – not least of which is the Panama hat that originated in nearby Montecristi.

Salaverry

This is our gateway to the treasures of northern Peru. Named after the Spanish city where conquistador Francisco Pizarro was born, Trujillo's stately mansions and decorated balconies date back as far as 1534. This is the Moche Valley, home to the extraordinary adobe citadels built a thousand years earlier by the Chimus and Mochicas. Most remarkable of all is Chan-Chan. Capital of the Kingdom of the Great Chimu and the largest city in South America to be built of mud, it once covered an area of over 12 square miles.

Callao

Located on the fringe of Peru's fascinating capital, Lima. The city features many fine landmarks, not least of which is the Plaza de Armas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You'll appreciate its mix of colonial mansions, Moorish balconies, palaces and churches. Don’t miss a visit to the Gold Museum, brimming with resplendent Inca exhibits.

Arica

In the midst of the World’s driest desert, the Atacama, is a seaside oasis called Arica. Just outside of town in the Azapa Valley you’ll find giant figures of animals and geometric forms left behind by ancient civilizations. In Arica, visit the Pacific Museum and San Marco Cathedral for sights well worth seeing.

Coquimbo

La Serena (Coquimbo), Chile

If you're looking to steal a few tranquil moments, what better place than La Serena, The Serene One. Its nearby pristine beaches come with powdery white sand and warm water. And Chile's second-oldest city also offers quite a collection of cultural delights. Be sure to take in the stunning colonial architecture around the Plaza de Armas, go stargazing at the Mamalluca Observatory, and sample the region's mouth-watering seafood.

Valparaiso

Set around a magnificent harbor and against a backdrop of snow-covered mountains, Valparaiso is the capital of the Valparaiso Region, Chile’s principal port, and a delightful city to explore. Stroll its cobbled streets and quiet plazas, or head to Muelle Prat, a lively market. Just an hour inland is Santiago de Chile, founded in 1541 by the Conquistadors, and an impressive city of Spanish Colonial styles and old world, European architecture.

Santiago is the economic and cultural hub of the country, occupying a spectacular basin at the foot of the highest peaks of the Andes. Linger on leafy squares, visit the Palacio de la Moneda, see the pre-Colombian art museum and soak up the colorful street life of lively markets or the more sophisticated districts of Providencia and Las Condes.
